Part 1
I wanted to tell Gregori my water broke but he is too busy getting us out of here. But I know I still have time. My contractions haven't started yet. Although I can only hope we will make it back to the castle in the time.
"Come Treasure, this way. We need to go through the woods. There are too many of them." My beloved whisper says, while squeezing my hand in a reassuring manner. I nod my head - silently following him.
It's dark and barely seeable, no torches or anything since we didn't want to bring any more attention to us.
We keep walking for what feels like hours. All together there is 10 of us. That helps in moving faster, unfortunately I am the one who is keeping us a bit behind their schedule. But what can I do? I am pregnant for god's sake and barefoot.
I already feel I have few splinters in my feet.
"Gregori love, I-i can't anymore." I say just before my legs give me away. They haven't been feeding me properly and this whole experience was very travail.
He catches me, and brings me in an even tighter embrace. "Just a little more my love, just a little more. We have a safe shelter based there. Want me to carry you?" I shake me head saying no. I know he is tired too and I am heavy. He looks at me hesitantly but nods his head.
Gregori hooks his hand under my rib cage and lean me on himself. He is basically carrying me.
We take a few steps but I step on another broken branch and hiss in pain. "That's it. I am carrying you." He lifts me up bridal style like I weight nothing. My hands go around his neck and I lean my head against his shoulder.

I dose off from time to time for few minutes and then wake back up. I hope I am not heavy.
Gregori chuckles. Did I say it out loud?
"No treasure I can hear your thoughts. And I am a vampire love, I could carry you like this for hours, besides you know I am in shape and you are light as a feather." He kisses the top of my head and we go quiet again.
This time I don't fight sleep anymore. I welcome it.
•••
I feel someone shaking me so I slowly open my eyes - meeting Gregori's perfect blue ones. I look around and notice we are in some kind of fancy tent with some light furniture.
Suddenly I feel pain in my abandonment and realize contractions have started. They are still bearable for now.
"Where are we? What happened?" I rush out wanting to get some answers while trying to sit up.
My beloved sighs and sits next to me on bed.
"Castle attack was a distraction for kidnapping you. I believe my father was behind it. Was there anything particular you might have seen or heard?"
"I couldn't see where we going since they hit me in my head pretty hard. Umm your father and your uncle were behind it. They just want me gone. Me and our baby. I was locked in the dungeons, so that is all I know." I explain. Gregori nods his head.
"Doctor checked up on you and did physical examinations. Besides those splinters - which you should have told me about, a cut in your head, and a broken water - which again I should have known earlier, oh and not to forget you were starved and dehydrated, you are perfectly fine." I smile at his attempt of lifting up the mood.

"Gregori my contractions are starting. Will we be home soon?" His hands intertwine with mine and he moves even closer to me.
"We have to wait two more hours for day light. And then we go. I hope our baby will wait for birth this long." I nod my head and we fall into welcomed quietness.
Gregori lays down beside me and embraces me. He kisses my cheeks and whispers: "I missed you love. I was so worried about you two. I haven't sleep or eat. I couldn't - not until I found you."
I feel a few tears escape my eyes. "I missed you too. I wanted nothing more than to be back in your arms. To kiss you." I whisper against his lips.
He kisses me passionately and then we both fall asleep. Safe in each other's arms. Finally back together.

Weaponsmith : [A crafting litRPG]
[I accidentally got engaged to the evil owl-goddess who is obsessed with the number-three and now I have to make weapons for our new adventuring guild] In an era in which ancient gods live in the world’s cities together with their mortal followers, forming tight-knit guilds and powerful temples, the disfigured ash-caster and blacksmith Hineni has lived his entire life as a reclusive outcast. Hidden away behind layers of clothing and just as many walls and doors, he only ever leaves the house in the dead of night, so that neither the gods or anyone else can ever see him. However, on one of these night-tide outings, he finds that has gained the unwanted attention of what is seemingly a perfectly normal owl and through his unwitting efforts at simply filling his nights with acts of personal meaning, he ends up promising himself to a creature that is perhaps even less versed in human ways than he himself is; a mysterious, odd owl-goddess that nobody seems to have ever heard of, Obscura. Hineni, having had no greater purpose in life until now, finds himself willing to accept this turn of events and dedicates himself to creating a brand new adventuring guild, under the watchful eyes of the ancient entity Obscura, who has only one, clear, proclaimed goal - - To hunt the BIG FROG!

8 822My Shapeshifting Life
Following what many people described as the 'Whispering of the Sirens', the entire world shifted ever so slightly. A dozen or so individuals through the world awakened unimaginable powers, beginning what would later be known as the 'Metahuman Revolution'. Lilith, a woman who'd always thought of herself as a normal, down-to-earth kind of person, suddenly found herself caught up in all of the drama and changes. With the military wishing to pick her up and force her into becoming a supersoldier, the media obsessing over her, and the scientists salivating to get their hands on her, she really could use any help she could get. Thankfully, while the world still didn't make much sense, at least she gained some sweet powers that could help her survive, if nothing else.
8 149The Better Side Of Evil
The last surviving son of House Rotwald is on the run. Chased by his enemies into the heart of a long forgotten wasteland, he is forded to traverse an unholy place of power. With the pursuers hot on his heels, can Victorian find shelter in the realm of the living dead? Or will he become just another walking corpse, doomed to wonder the land for all eternity? Everything that he believed in, everything that he held sacred – gods, kings and their laws – has already betrayed him. With nothing left to lose could the young paladin be persuaded to accept a new master? Could he bargain away his life to a dark power in exchange for vengeance? And what would he be required to do in return? The Kingdom of Leidemar is on the verge of ruin. Rival powers seek to divide it, but there is an opportunity for a new ruler to arise from within its own nobility. And even a lowly nobleman, if positioned correctly, could end up a king. Someone with the right allies, perhaps? Or maybe cruel allies would suffice? But for now the last surviving son of House Rotwald is on the run. *This story is as much about the monsters as it is about the people facing them. Some become allies while others become wet stains on the floor. I firmly believe that villains can make for some of the most endearing characters. Monsters need not be sour and droll. Have a bit of fun - indulge in a bit of villainy. Enjoy the gray morality and colorful cast of this story! *I have a Discord server now: https://discord.gg/4phDRU2 **Artwork by Shane Pierre: https://007access.deviantart.com/ ***I am not a native English speaker, so feel free to help me improve my use of the language!
